Chapter 21, Problem 2PP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The product formed by the reaction between trans-alkene and deuterium, in the presence of Wilkinson's reagent is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Wilkinson’s catalyst is a complex of metal rhodium attached to four ligands, one chlorine and three phosphine triphenyl. It helps in the hydrogenation of alkenes in a single homogeneous phase.

Cis and trans are the isomeric structures of the same compound, as the molecular formula of the isomers remains the same and the arrangement of molecules changes.

Give structures for the product(s) formed from the other alkenes when subjected to the conditions of ozonolysis.
An optically active compound A, C6H₁0O₂, when dissolved in NaOH solution, consumed 1 equiv of base. On acidification, 2² compound A was slowly regenerated. Treatment of A with LiAlH in ether followed by protonolysis gave an optically inactive compound B that reacted with acetic anhydride to give an acetate diester derivative C. Compound B was oxidized by aqueous chromic acid to ß-methylglutaric acid (3-methylpentanedioic acid), D. Identify compounds A, B, and C; do not specify stereochemistry. (The absolute stereochemical configurations of chiral substances cannot be determined from the data.) Draw compound A. Incorrect s Draw compound B. Incorrect OH
